Like Cindy said, the decision was made months ago. No sense crying over spilled milk.

A better plan would be to send a clear, concise, well written letter/email to Ben Jay & OC Sports advocating for online broadcast of all the big sports.

I hope that whoever broadcasts UH sports in future years will have an online broadcast, that’s all.

Believe they did online briefly. before OC16 took over. But I’m not positive.

Did K5 ever broadcast online? I live on the Big Island and have no TV service where I live.

If it hadn’t been rained out, the baseball game would have been televised and the UH fans, neighbor island and otherwise, would have been served. Never understood why the weren’t going to televise both to start, baseball was at 1, volleyball at 5. should have been doable but that was the decision made months ago.

Oceanic should start thinking about them to, if they want to continue Televising UH Sports.

I don’t understand why they didn’t other than they didn’t have the staff to do it. Believe there are more cameras involved. meaning more people to work at vb.
Funny you say that about K5. Most of OC16 staff are former K5 workers.
I don’t think it was laziness. The volleyball crew was not scheduled to work today.

I wish you would address your message to Jay, the athletic director so that he would hear fans’ complaints about OC Sports laziness. Beside us fans losing the opportunity to watch the match, OC Sports lost on advertising revenue as there was no baseball today, so they lost all the way. It should be a lesson to them that it’s not worth broadcasting baseball that could be rained out while volleyball is not affected by rain. OC Sports really dropped the ball on this stupid decision. I do have one more question, though, would K5 have broadcast online? If not, I’ll take OC Sports any time.

Just thought if baseball was canceled, they could possibly show volleyball. I guess im just being spoiled since a lot of UH sports matches are free online this year. I was regulated to just listening to ESPN1420am/livestats the previous years….(don’t have the money to shell out to watch all the games I wish I could have)…. I try to catch almost all of the online streaming provided for all sports.. and I’m just glad their free this year… can’t be to sour though.

K5 was doing it in less then 2 hours before. When K5 was televising both Baseball in the afternoon and Volleyball or Basketball in the evening. Since all the cables are in place, all it takes is moving the 16-wheel mobile unit, from one site to the other, and connecting all the cables to the mobile unit. I just feel Oceanic is just to lazy to do so. Time to give the rights back to K5, they seem more professional, and gear everything to the UH fans.
